Stayed here for one night on a work trip. Have stayed here before, but not since it became a Premier Inn. Rooms have been nicely refurbished - the bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was basic but clean. On the downside, the windows are still the original single-glazed panels, so it can be quite noisy if you're at the... more

I stay at the Nelson in Norwich probably one a month and it rarely fails to live up to what you would expect in a Premier Inn. Reception are always friendly, the restaurant is fine and location excellent. There is a bit of a divide in the rooms, the 'new' block (furthest from the restaurant) are probably nicer than those... more

Stayed 2 nights at £29 a night, what a bargain, had room overlooking the river. Room clean and bright. Hotel central for everything in Norwich. We used it as a base to travel around Norfolk. Breakfast good value as was the evening meal. Parking not an issue, just get your ticket validated. more

My partner & I have just spent a really good two days in Norwich at The Nelson Premier Inn. It is wonderfully central to the city centre and lots of pubs and restaurants. We did not eat dinner at the hotel but did use the bar and the service was a bit dissapointing. The young girl serving ( Helen )... more

I stayed here twice, whilst working in area in Mar and Apr 09. I wanted to be away from the usual airport sort of hotel. Chose ithe Nelson because it is close to the town centre, yet with it being on the riverside, it was a place to chill out in the evenings and also have a pleasent pre-work coffee... more

Coming originally from Norwich, I have had a bit of a disappointment with most of the hotels there as I visit friends and relatives over the years. I have known this hotel for many many years and decided to stay there this time as i had heard it had been refitted. What a fantastic job they have done. The rooms... more

Stayed for two nights in Feb 2009 and overall I would say it is an excellent hotel for anyone visiting Norwich. We went to see the Football at Carrow Road which is only a short walk from the hotel.We also went shopping in the City center (another short walk) and went out on the town in the evening. We had... more

Located on the riverbank and across the river/road from the train station this hotel has a great location. At the end of Prince of Wales Road which IS the local club scene but as long as you don't mind walking past lots of teenagers queuing for night clubs/cashpoints it's not a problem - we never saw any 'trouble' at all.... more
